She Was Abandoned By Her Family… but the Duke’s Single Misstep Would Alter Her Destiny Forever

Set in the glittering yet unforgiving world of 1814 Regency England, this is the story of Eleanor Whitcombe—a 19-year-old young woman cast out by her own ambitious family for refusing an arranged marriage. Left with nothing but a carpetbag and her dignity, she accepts humble work in the household of the enigmatic Duke of Ashford, a 31-year-old widower haunted by loss and bound by duty. But during a royal reception at Carlton House, the Duke makes a single, impulsive choice: he publicly defends Eleanor from a cruel whisper. In an instant, the ballroom freezes… and London society assumes far more intimacy between them than either intended. Scandal erupts, reputations tremble, and suddenly their fates are entwined in ways neither can escape. As pressures mount from the monarchy, as gossip sharpens its teeth, and as guarded hearts begin to open, Eleanor discovers that the very mistake meant to ruin her may become the key to her own power—and perhaps to a love she never dared imagine.
